Yep. This would be installing and dedicating space to the Epic launcher, and maintaining an account and its credentials.
You people are nuts lol. I don't like Epic either, but if you think buying a $60 game is somehow less work than just claiming a free game, you're delusional. $60 is at least several hours worth of literally working for the vast majority of us, whereas a miniscule amount of hard drive space and a one-time affair of setting up an account is a non-issue. Especially if you use a password manager (as you should), then you don't even need to remember the password.
There are plenty of reasons to hate Epic, stop making up bad ones.
C'mon now. 🤨
Wow, so much work for thousands of dollars worth of games!
Man, if only there was another way to get free games...
